PROF.. 1onpAs,s SCIENCE SKETCHES.

Prof. David Starr Jordan, of the University
of Indiana, who is the great American author
ity on fishes, and widely known as scientist
in other directions, copous contributor to
scientific periodicals, not only on his special
ty, bat on various topics of scientific inter-
est, has just published volume ent tied
"Science Sketches" (Chicago: A. O. Nc
Clurg & Coz 1t is composed of eleven es-
says, eight of which have been heretofore
published in various periodicals, and three
now appearing in print for the first time.
The essays are very readable and instructive.
They belong mainly to the department of
popular science,-that is, science simplified
in terms and its facts made attractive by lit
erary style. There are essays on 60 The Sal
mon Family, Nomenclature of American
Birds" "The Dispersion of Fresh-water
Fishes, ""The Story of Salmon" and 1.-THE
Story of Stone." There are also instruct
i've papers on Charles Robert Darwin, and
"The Evolution of the College Curriculum"
thrilling account of Gan Ascent of the
Matterhorn," first published in Our CONT
nent in 1881, is also included in the volume,
with several other papers whose titles we DO
not give. The address on Darwin was deliv-
cred before the Indiana State Normal School
in 1888. We regard it as one of the most
valuable papers in the volume, giving a clear,
systematic and popular outline of his teach
ing, and particularly valuable for its 1iscrim
mat ng analysis and the proof which he gives
that the method of the universe as unfolded
by Darwin, is not in any way inimical to
Christianity, when properly understood. Prof.
Jordan's volume can be recommended as
one of the best books on popular science
published in recent years. For sale by all
Chicago booksellers.

enchantment has been doomed to sleep
many hundred year." The subject affords
abundance of material for illustration, and
has been handled With rare skill by the artist
In his fourteen original pictures. Mr.. Percy
Macquoid, r. L., was specially selected by
the committee of the London Art Union to
prepare their annual presentation book for
the year, his success in the Royal Academy
and in other places having made him shin
ing light in the Temple of Art These illus
trations by photogravure process have, in
powerful handling and general effect, a strong
resemblance to the broad sketches of the
Spanish painters Fortuney and Madrazzo,
representing the best effects of the modern
school of black and white. The paper, print
ing and binding of this unique book are of
the best, and 'The Bridal of Triermain" will
readily take its place among the delightful
works of art in the bookstores.

The funeral procession OF the sympa-
thizers with the executed Anarchists in
this city on Sunday, numbered about
5000 persons and it was attended with no
disturbance. No red flags we're allowed,
and the entire funeral was under police
regulations. The procession was not more
than two-thirds as large as that of Mre.
Neebe's and as free from all demonstra-
ton while in the city. At the cemetery
there were few inhammatory speeches,
but that was all. The followers seemed
to be more impressed with grief than
thoughts of revenge. At the homes of
the bereaved families there were many
heart-rending scenes as the wives and
mothers took their last farewell.

AT the Stock Yards the receipts OF cat
tie were $4,000; of hogs, $4,000; of sheep,
5000. Business brisk in all departments.
Cattle, especially plain and medium ma
tives, sold substantially lower. Sheep,
especially Western and Texans, went
over the scales in large numbers at 1885
to $685. for Montanas, among which were
some of the best on sale this season. A
big band of clipped Texans made $3021a.

" The Sunny Side of ShGdoi0; or the Rev.
cries Of ConUalescent," is from the graceful
pen of Mrs. Fannie Nichols Benjamin. 1t is
a small book, but its value must not be esti-
mated by its size. 1t contains twelve chap
tiers which are rich in cheering and uplifting
thought designed to present hopeful views of
life and its experiences, and to impart that
Christian philosophy to the reader which dis
covers the soul of goodness in things usually
esteemed evil. We find some very delicate
and tender touches in these chapters: they
are radiant with true spiritual insight. They
were written during the lingering hours of a
long convalescenoe, but there is here no sick
room taint-all is fresh, hopeful and inspir-
ing. It is book for thoughtful hour and
will inspire thought in a sympathetic reader.

In New York the Democrats at the elec-

ticket, the votes of New York and Brooklyn
overcoming the Republican votes of the
State by $4,000, defeating Col. F. d. Grant
for Secretary of State. In Pennsylvania the
Republicans carried the State. AS only
two State officers weIe to be elected there
was but little excitement. The contest
in Ohio was a bitter one, both parties
were at their best and worst. The Re-
publicans elected their entire ticket by
an increased majority In Massachusetts
the Republicans have carried the State
by an increased majority, the returns
thus far showing a Democratic loss of
8,400. In Oregon the excitement was
over the Prohibition amendment to the
Constitution, which is claimed to be de-
teated by 1900. In Rhode Island there
was an election for Congressman in the
Second District, and the Republican can

CATARRH, CATARRHAL DEAFNESS AND HAY
FEVER.
Sufferers are not generally aware that these
diseases are contagious, or that they are due to
the presence of living parasites in the lining
membrane of the nose and eustachian tubes.
Microscopic research, however has proved
this to be fact, and the result is that a sim
pie remedy has been formulated whereby
catarrh, catarrhal deafness and hay fever are
permanently cured in from one to three sim
pie applications made by the patient at home.

BEAUTIFUL SONGS" is the name of new
Sunday singing book, by the popula
composer and compiler of music, PROF. S. W.
STRAUB, of Chicago. The hymns in this book
are of higher CHRISTIAN character and posses
more than ordinary merit, while the tune
are rich in melody and harmony. They have
a swing and spontaneity about them that can.
not fail toinspire everyc ne who sings OF hears
them. While they are easy, they are not

type used in "BEAUTIFUL SONGS" is a feature
that is unusual and very important.
"BEAUTIFUL SONGS" contains 1872 pages,
and is well printed and strongly bound, with
handsome covers. We offer it to our Univer.

John B. AIdt n, publisher.
DIR. Rankin is not a Scotchman by birth,
but he bas a veritable genius for the Scotch
dialect. These poems are very choice and
beautiful, and there are few readers who
could distinguish them from the verse of
poets to the manor born. DR.. Rankin seems
quite at home in singing the lays of Caledo-
mia. They will rank as first-class Scottish
productions, albeit by one not born in the
land whose genius and characteristic verse is
so closely initiated. Gen. James Grant Will
son says of the author: az am so delighted
with some of DIR. Rankin's poems, that had
he been born in Scotland, l should have in
serted them in my new volumes of Scottish
poetry"

series, but timely in view of the current dis
cussion in regard to the possib ilties of the
after death life. The story is that of an ag-
nostic physician, who, devotedly attached to
a lovely wife, but growing acoustic med to his
blessedness, gives way to temper in the home.
and parting from his wife after unkind
words, is suddenly thrown from his carriage
and killed. He finds himself in another state
of existence, without at first realizing that he
is dead; it is here that the author makes her
strongest imaginative appeal. She writes
with great force and power of the experiences
of this unbelieving soul, so Unexpectedly in
troduced to the mysteries of another exist
ence, and still hungering there for the minis
tries of that affection which had blessed his
earthly life. The final result is that which
an enlarged Christian hope presents. The
soul finds the final rest and peace and that
knowledge of God which is the true eternal
life. The first half of the book is marvelously
well written-the latter portion is vague and
unsatisfactory, even from the standpoint of
the writer. "The Gates Between " will help
many to believe in the possibility of what the
orthodox people term ga second probation"
